Internet-Process Id,ports related

jared78 · 05-16-2005, 01:33 AM

hi,
My internet client says 'already connected thru process id 2556',if I tried to login.
Reality is i m not. ping dns no answer.

Is this a open/close port problem?

All I did was upgrade the GCC..

Just shoot ur ideas..

thanks,
Jared

Give 'netstat -alnp' a try. As root.

hey Matir,
In netstat -alnp,
In columns I.Node and PID, I see a lot of ID's but not process ID 2556.
Should I look for that alone?

I still get the error I m alrady connected thru process ID2556

thanx,
Jared

What kind of client is this?

jared78 · 05-18-2005, 12:03 AM

It is called a crclient.
I m connectd thru a lan. configure-static ip.
it was working fine till I upgraded the GCC.
It does not get logged out with ./crclient -l but the login attempts give the same error.

thanx,
Jared

I reinstalled the OS and now it works fine like b4.
I know this is not the ideal way of troubleshooting,but now I atleast know what not to do ...lol
If u have an idea as to what could have happened just post it.

i was going thru some more threads and it seems that the tmp directory would have a PID of crclient.
Deleting that wud solve the problem.

Just posting this for the help of others.

thanks again Matir,
Jared
